Someone (Baruch?) posted a link to the now-official github site, but AFAICS
it's not actively maintained. i mailed the guy a couple of times with C89
portability patches and got no response, but IIRC Baruch reported getting a
response from him.

In any case, i tend to agree - if it's not maintained, we should drop it
because it's not a piece "just anyone" can get their fingers in and tweak.
